| dc.description.abstract | Dalam penyelidikan ini, metil ester (ME) telah dihasilkan daripada minyak masak kelapa sawit yang baru (VPO) dan sisa (WPO) dengan menggunakan sejenis pemangkin yang baru dijana iaitu kalsium oksida disokong oleh karbon teraktif (CaO/AC) sebagai pemangkin heterogen. Kaedah permukaan sambutan (RSM) berdasarkan rekabentuk komposit berpusat (CCD) telah digunakan untuk mengoptimumkan aktiviti pemangkin dengan cara mengkaji kesan parameter iaitu jumlah CaO yang dimuatkan di atas karbon teraktif, suhu dan masa kalsinasi. In this present study, methyl ester (ME) was produced by transesterification of virgin cooking palm oil (VPO) and waste cooking palm oil (WPO) using newly developed calcium oxide catalyst supported on activated carbon (CaO/AC) as a heterogeneous catalyst. Response surface methodology (RSM) based on central composite design (CCD) was used to optimize the catalytic activity by investigating the effect of CaO loading amount on AC, calcination temperature and calcination time. | en_US |
